Disclaimer: Just Lily, no one else.
A/N As per your later requests, I'm attempting to make the next chapter a bit longer, but really, don't expect it. I'm not the most imaginative guy on the planet, if you know what I mean. As for the spacing, that's because of what I'm writing with, not me.
Fights…and feelings of jealousy
"Are you absolutely sure this is safe?" she asked. Tails wanted to introduce Lily to Sonic, and he had insisted that flying was the quickest way to get to their apartment. Lily, after hearing Tails could fly with his tails, was fairly surprised. Not completely surprised, just fairly. "Yes, I'm sure!" he said. "I've never dropped anybody before, and I don't intend to now." Lily looked down. "Amazing…I've never been so high before!" Tails chuckled at that. "Scared of heights?" he asked. Lily blushed slightly, but Tails saw. "Well…just a little, but I know I can get used to it." she answered. As she looked around, she couldn't help but think… "I wish I could fly." That's when Tails spotted their apartment. "Hold on Lily! We're going to land now." She seemed to regret that the flight had to end.
"You know Tails; I still can't believe you're friends with the Sonic the Hedgehog! You must be really famous now!" Tails blushed. "Yeah, I am, but I really don't mind." As they climbed the steps, she was very surprised. "What do you mean, you don't mind? You have your picture in the news; you get special privileges wherever you go! You can probably do anything you want!" she argued. That's when Tails turned to face her. "Yeah, but that's only looking at the good side of things! There's having to deal with people always hounding you and asking for your autograph, not to mention all the reporters constantly pushing just to shine a light in your face! It just gets really frustrating! Especially when you just want to be left alone." By the look on his face, he seemed really hurt. She was about to console him, when Sonic came to the door. "Hey, Tails, is that you? I heard you and someone else out here…that's when he looked down and noticed Lily. "Excuse me, but who are you?" She looked up. "Oh, I'm sorry… I'm Lily." Sonic sounded surprised. "You mean the Lily who Tails was talking about all last night? Tails looked up at him and gave him a "why did you say that?" look. Lily couldn't help but blush. "He was? Oh, that's so sweet!" She turned and ended up giving him a hug that resembled one of Amy's monster hugs. "Lily…can't breathe…" he choked out. "Oh…sorry." She let go. Sonic grinned. "Now you know how I feel." Lily turned around. "Huh? What are you talking about?" Tails answered for him. "She's Sonic's personal stalker. She's pink, young and waaay too hyper. You say one word about Sonic, and she launches into an hour-long story about him." Lily got a good mental picture. "Wow…weird." Sonic shook his head. "Not weird…just devoted."
Sonic looked at the sky. "It's getting dark. You should take her home. It would be better if you took the Tornado instead of flying, since it has headlights. Lily was confused. "The Tornado? What's that, Tails?" Tails had forgotten to mention it to her. "Oh…I'm sorry." He said. "I meant to tell you earlier. Follow me." he said. He led her to the workshop, where he kept the custom plane. As soon as she saw it, she was in awe. "Oh my… is that yours?" Tails nodded. "Built it myself."
"No way! All by yourself?" "Yep. Get in." As he started it up, she felt something. Something…different. Something she'd never felt before. But she wasn't completely sure what…though she had a good idea. As they took off, Sonic watched them. He felt something too…but it wasn't the same as what Lily felt. What he felt was completely different. He wasn't sure, but later, he would find out that what he felt…was jealousy.
